Superb master property in an enchanting setting
At the end of a long private driveway lined with century-old trees, behind its beautiful period gate, this superb historic residence offers its residents a magnificent view of the lake, the Alps, and the Lavaux vineyards.
This exceptional property enjoys absolute discretion, without being isolated. The picturesque environment has been preserved by the current owner, between countryside, authenticity, and modernity.
Its magnificent spaces, the generous volumes enhanced by its traditional parquet floors and moldings, give it a majestic charm.
The two living rooms on the ground floor each have a functional fireplace. The dining room communicates with the beautiful contemporary kitchen through a service pantry with storage.
The ground floor benefits from a vast terrace, facing south, overlooking the park and its English lawns. Access to the terrace is via a majestic staircase.
The main entrance unfolds a double reception worthy of the prestige of the whole.
To access the upper floor, one takes a staircase made according to dimensions and prestige equal to the indescribable refinement produced by the artisans of the time.
On the first floor, there is a bright master suite with a comfortable terrace facing the vineyards, the lake, and the Alps, a dressing room, a living room, a contemporary bathroom/shower, as well as two bedrooms. There is an additional bedroom on this level with its shower room, initially occupied by the governess. This floor benefits from temperature regulation to enhance overall comfort.
With a distinct access, the top floor consists of a children's playroom, an office, a living room, three beautiful bedrooms, two bathrooms/showers, and a separate water point.
Completely excavated, the villa offers a basement of 400 m2, rather at garden level, composed among others, of an equipped laundry room, a wintering space reserved for plants, a wine cellar, a storage room, as well as a garage for two cars. An additional room can be designated for fitness or a playroom. The exteriors are regularly maintained by gardeners who respect the cycles of the various species that have enriched the estate since its conception at the beginning of the last century.
Ideally located, this property designed by an American architect, built of bricks and cut stone, was intended to accommodate professional musicians in respect of the acoustics that prevailed at that time.
The park lighting, the automatic gate, the secure access, the contemporary lighting, the water softener, the new boiler, the La Cornue stove, the satellite TV connections, high-speed WIFI, air conditioning in the master suite, automatic blinds, and the many other comfort elements have been added to the qualities of this villa.
Modernism combined with heritage conservation means that nothing has been neglected in this house of approximately 600 m2 of living space, renovated by an architect, on the advice of the current owner, in 2015. Schools, quality shops, the train station, the motorway access, as well as the tennis club and Lavaux golf course, are nearby. The city of Vevey is 10 minutes away, Lausanne 15 minutes away.
